Divinity and fudge. My mom used to make them every year, along with lots of others; but they were always the first to go.

My father made the divinity, I made the fudge and the snowball and spritz cookies, and my mom made the cutout spice cookies and the peanut butter cookies with a Hershey’s kiss in the middle.

Yes, my mom also made divinity and fudge. And fried rosette cookies. This year I made peanut butter cookies, coconut macaroons, cutout sugar cookies, and some 3-layer chocolate mint candy. I just use white frosting and some sugary sprinkles on the sugar cookies, which I roll a little to the thin side. I might still make some rosette cookies.

I gave trays to my hairdresser, my chiropractor, the best next-door neighbors with 4 young sons (they got a BIG tray), and the parents of my son-in-law.

I always wanted to do holiday baking, and now that I am retired, actually have time to do some.
